    Apparently Louisiana was “smart” and allows a third party to do this for them, called AllpassTrust. Pornhub is fine with this type of verification, which is why LA is the only southern state here (GA isn’t southern enough).

      Yeah, if it was just age verification there are third party services that do it in a secure way, and I’ve always said we could implement things like you verify with your browser that you’re over 18, and at the protocol level it would the allow or deny

      Of course age verification isn’t the actual goal, so none of those privacy respecting approaches are ever considered in most places. Download what you can now, I’m guessing this is coming for the nation
